In Topic: Font preference not working

31 August 2019 - 11:32 AM

Just want to report my findings and actions.

When I logged in as another user the fontsetting worked so obviously something happened to my user profile.

Searched long but could not find what it was so I deleted my user profile including all data. Restarted the computer and made a new user profile.

In this new profile the font setting works.

It is a drastic measure and a lot of settings etc. have to be made again. But at least e-Sword has a good font again.

Strange that no other programs were affected.

You are right it is not Arial, it looks more like Courier. The displayed font is not proportional and can not be changed.

When trying to change the size only the distance between the lines changes, not the size of the letters.

The problem is only affecting e-Sword. Not any other program.

By the way, I do not necessary need Arial the standard Verdana is also okay if I could change to that. But as explained, I can select any font in the font dialog window.

It displays as selected but nothing changes. The problem began yesterday without any action from my side.

It seems nothing helps.

 

Deinstalled e-Sword, deleted directory, cleaned registry, reinstalled.

 

No change and strangely enough e-Sword remembered the font-selection but did not use it.

 

There must be some hidden files somwhere.
